    Great news on the honeymoon booking - so exciting!

    I love the dress Birdie, and the feathery type garish dress that everyone else liked.

    Cinny I think you should buy the shampoo that works if it lasts 9 months :)

    How funny is LittlePinkStars44's thread?! It's both frustrating and hilarious at the same time!

    Hope everyone is ok :) I feel really dizzy and sick and odd - it's a bit weird!

    Dinah, the honeymoon looks amazing. Congratulations and well done on getting the rpice down a bit. You and NIM both deserve this and I'm sure we'll all be very jealous but really happy for you. :beer:

    I'm sure you'll get the credit card down in no time too, you're an inspiration to all of us xx
    Let's start again (really need a kick up the bum now) :wall:

  • Ooh so you saved about £150 then? Brill, so you can say, like, that's the cake for free! Or something? Sorry head's a bit fuzzy! Ahh bet you're so excited!

    I'm not surprised you feel odd Zig after staying up all night the other night - how did it go?

    That pink stars thread is turning into a bit of a witch hunt I'll not be surprised if it gets closed to be honest, I feel a bit sorry for her if it's genuine, but I know what you mean, I can't see what she wants?!

    ETA (sorry, fluff head) - fingers crossed for NIM re. redundancies and hopefully he'll find something else anyway :( It's a worrying time.

    Shes posted the same type thread for 3 years, then makes excuses not to do anything, it just doesnt make sense.

    That's great - fair play to him :)

    In money news, I just overpaid £500 of my Northern Rock loan. It feels great to be in the position to start paying back on the loan now, instead of the credit cards. I want to keep throwing cash at it but unfortunately I don't have any cash to throw til the end of the month.

    Hope you are okay Zig.

    I have another 750ml bottle of it from an order mess up when I first bought it. Thankfully you can use cheapish conditioner with it and you still get good results, but I am slightly tempted to order the conditioner just to see if it makes my hair more shiney!

    Good on NIM for doing well on his course so far, make sure you crack the whip so he gets his assignments done! Hope he doesn't get hit with the redundancy badness, but if it has made him think about moving on to a better job then maybe it's good that the rumours are going round. Sometimes it takes the threat of losing your job to push you into finding one that you actually want to do!

    I'm surprised everyone liked that garish blue/pink feathery dress, I thought it was a bit much (I much preferred the jumpsuit one I posted this morning! Not!). I've seen some more crackers though, I might post them tonight!
